Please, the best interests of ALL aircrew are negotiated around a table with strong management negotiating with strong union leaders.
We would like nothing better than your description above. We feel our leaders
are strong, but they have been frustrated in their efforts to negotiate with BA for months over this issue. (BA refused to even talk to us about it when we raised it - for 9 months!)
Strong management take their workforce along when seeking to make changes. We suspect that our management have a masterplan they do not wish to share with us, one not involving our futures.
